I loved this film as a Kid. I am still a fan to this day. 

Daniel could be a real jerk though and wow in the 3rd movie could have slapped him.

William Zabka a great 80's jerk.  Still he made Johnny an interesting character not just an average movie bully.

Great soundtrack as well. 

Who could ever forget Mr. Miyagi he was great. Love in Part 2 when he goes back home. It was nice of Daniel to go with him.  Pat Morita brought such heart and soul to the character.

That's because he wasn't the villain, he was an antagonist.  The movie made the wise choice of having Kreese be the true villain.

I haven't checked out the Cobra Kai series on Youtube Red which updates the lives of the characters but the reviews have been fantastic. 100 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, 8.9 rating on IMDB. The trailer:

I really loved the Karate Kid and particularly loved the second film.

Someone made this hilarious video pushing the idea that Daniel was the real villain.

How I Met Your Mother’s Barney’s love of The Karate Kid and his belief that Zabka was the real hero was so much fun especially when Ralph Macchio and Zabka appeared on the show.  Zabka ended up a recurrent guest star as part of Barney’s circle of friends in the final season.
